The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

a slow-paced, low-stakes game of drilling through endless blocks in orbit, where progress is steady and calm.

What players say

Players say Orbitmine is a brief, relaxing incremental miner that runs well, but it runs out of content in about three hours. There is no prestige system, and having only two spawn points forces tedious backtracking. Players split on the endgame boss, calling it either boring or out of place.
